Under Neon Movie Reviews: "Dark Shadows" (2012)

Movie: Dark Shadows
Year: 2012
Rating: 7/10 Stars *******

Definitely one of my personal favorite Tim Burton movies so far. Based on the classic Johnny Depp stars as the innocent 1700's noble turned vampire by a witch, to be buried alive and uncovered again in the 1970s. Takes place in Maine, not many movies do, which makes it a little bit more interesting than your standard flick. Check it out, its not serious at all and is really more of Tim Burton's light-hearted dark comedy genre.

Under Neon Movie Reviews: 'The Hunger Games' (2012)

Movie: The Hunger Games
Year: 2012
Rating: 8/10 Stars ********

Wow, this movie was actually quite good, although very violent and disturbing to have to watch young teens and children murder each other in order to be allowed to live. This movie definitely acts as a piece of social commentary and asks "how far would they go?" There are shades of the Gladiators of ancient Rome, and of course one of those lost 80s Schwarzenegger flicks "The Running Man." Check this one out if you get the chance, but beware as its right around 2.5 hours long, and the sequel is already coming out.
